Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Windows at Apthorp Cleaner's


I don't know about you, but I am totally ready for Season 3 of the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel to be back tomorrow! The previews look amazing and I am sure it's going to be another fun season. Apthorp Cleaner's on the Upper West Side always has wonderful Barbie inspired windows. When I came across these this year, I knew I had to share but wanted to wait closer to the new season premiere. 

If you are a big fan as myself, hope you didn't miss my coverage of the Paley Center for Media exhibit of Making Maisel Marvelous but if you did, you can still view here on the blog. It was totally fantastic! 

Can you spot Susie ? 









The scenery on the Upper West Side is always so marvelous!

What is your favorite part of the show ? The fashion, the scenery, the cast, the script or all of the above? I would say all of the above for me. Enjoy Season 3 tomorrow and try not to watch all episodes in one weekend! I try to pace myself but it's very, very hard.

Apthorp Cleaners on the Upper West Side

I came across Apthorp Cleaners on my visit to the Upper West Side. A dry cleaner is really not something you will stop and look at, unless they have very neat windows. Their website has quite a bit of personality too, but I wasn't all that surprised! 
How adorable is this? A cafe with Barbie people and wonderful accessories to go with it 
The sun was my enemy trying to take these shots for you, but I just had to try. This was so darn cute! 
There is even an Audrey Hepburn type lady standing there to get a table! Love it ! 

This was an airport with folks traveling with their Juicy Couture items! I would love to know where they find these items! 
This classy lady has her Louis Vuitton luggage with her, maybe going to Paris for a week? 
Do you not find this just adorable? I love all the little details 



From what I read on their website, they do the usual in-home alterations, getting stains out and repairing clothing, but they also do garment restoration, which I imagine is not very common. They are in business 26 years, in the legendary Apthorp Building which is 100 years old. They have a board on their Pinterest of their Barbie Couture Collection which you can view HERE . I would say if you are looking for a very good dry cleaner, these folks would probably fit the bill. I hope you enjoyed this fun little Barbie treat found in the Upper West Side of New York City !!
